When I first stared getting panic attacks I had horrible heartburn made worse by not eating. Over the last 3 weeks since being medicated it has calmed down some. However, it is still there a lot. It is not the awfully painful heartburn, just the feeling of something stuck in my chest which feels better when I burp. Gaviscon hasn't helped much. When I mentioned it to my GP three weeks ago she said it sounds like classic heartburn. She listened to my chest and said everything sounds normal.
Now I am worried that this is actually a sign of cancer of the chest or cancer of something anyway. It's annoying but not painful, if it was cancer would it be painful?
I should probably see my doctor again but I feel a bit worried about it as I have seen him a few times recently and he might think it's in my head, which it isn't as I am no longer as anxious as I was. I think that it might be a sign of something bad but not to the extent I'm having panic attacks.
Should I give it another week and see if settles? I do drink a lot of pepsi max and recently quit smoking.
